A concerned fellow named Jason recently sent us one of the funniest emails we’ve received.

You guys are always making fun of people for liking cosplaying and liking certain anime characters. But would you guys still find it acceptable to masturbate to western characters like Wonder Woman or Jessica Rabbit? You people also seem to target cosplayers who are only dressed as characters made by Japanese people. But you guys seem to avoid people who cosplays as western characters that are dressed equality stupid like Superman (who wears his underwear on the outside) or Kratos (Dude wears a skirt).

I think the general stupidity speaks for itself. But in case Jason really wanted an answer about our “double standard,” how about this: The name of the website is “The Anime Reality,” not “The Western Reality.” Cheers!

Detroit has seen many “firsts” over the years: first mile of paved road, first techno artists. And now it has its first maid cafe — or “meido kafue,” as these novelty coffee houses and restaurants are called in Japan.

Damn, that’s terrible. The writing, not necessarily the fact that an enterprising couple started their own small business.

Chou Anime in Detroit is the only maid cafe currently operating in the United States, according to the Detroit News – another in California closed after a three-year stint.

Be sure to check out the full article for a great video of the cafe’s employees and constituents. There’s also a “helpful terms” section at the very bottom of the article that is not to be missed.
